Vasil Kisil & Partners has successfully represented Mondelez Ukraine a dispute against the Trostianets City Council regarding an increase of the rent for a land plot.
The City Council filed a lawsuit against Mondelez Ukraine seeking to enforce a supplemental agreement to a land lease agreement increasing the rent.
According to VKP, the local court dismissed the claim in full, agreeing with Mondelez’s arguments that neither the law nor the agreement provided for the lessor’s right to amend the agreement on its own initiative. Therefore, the decision of the City Council to increase the rent could not serve as a legislative ground for amending the agreement. The City Council did not appeal the court's decision.
Mondelez Ukraine is a member of the Mondelez International group, which is a chocolate, cookie, and candy manufacturer.
The VKP team consisted of Partner Oleg Kachmar, Senior Associate Yuriy Kolos, Associate Oleksandra Bortman.
